----->Frequently Asked Questions
==============================================================================
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a) Why we need this
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, why do we need a F.A.Q. section in this guide? Well, this way we can talk
about how to perform certain tricks that are difficult to perform, or whether
a certain secret is true or not. If you email me any questions about the game
I will put it here if you want to.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b) The FAQ
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) What are secrets?
Secrets can be a wide variety of things, but secrets are mainly just special
things you come across as you progress through the game, a in-game glitch, a
trick to aid you (or just for fun), or just some cool stuff for you to see.
2) Are secrets hard to find?
It depends. Dungeon Siege: Throne of Agony is definitely a big game, and
because of that you see a lot and there's all those characters and weapons.
Since there's all this to see or do, there ought to be a glitch or secret
here and there. But to find one it still requires some luck and testing. Some-
times you will just stumble upon a new secret or glitch, and sometimes as you
are trying to accomplish something you work out a trick. The difficulty to
one therefore depends on what type of secret, and how you find it. Since at
times you will almost work out a trick, but then it doesn't work all the time
you will spend a long time to work out a way to make it work- that's a hard
to find secret.
3) Is there ways of storing more items than your carry capacity in the game?
Yes there is, just check the trick- "Carry capacity overload" down in the
secrets section. It may not be as effective as you might wish, but it's one of
the only ways to carry more than you can.
4) Any ways of gaining quick experience?
Of course there is. Aside from training and training in previsited places you
can try the trick- "Quick spawns, Quick Experience" down in the secrets
section.
5) I can't manage to do a certain trick/ find a certain secret/ glitch!
All you have to do is stop panicking, as some tricks and secrets are hard to
perform or see. Take your time to follow my instructions and you'll be fine.
Doing the tricks step by step will help too. Otherwise contact me via email
and ask me there.
6) When are you going to update the guide?
Whao take it easy there guys..! I'll update as soon as a find another bunch of
secrets or the like. I'm currently trying to find as much cool stuff as
possible so keep coming back just incase I've updated.
In the future I might make a new section all together too, like some sort of
section to do with secrets. So don't walk to far off and come back!!
7) What is the best possible secret ever found?
I would say it's the "carry capacity overload" trick/glitch. It's just a great
way of carrying more items without officially 'cheating'. It's easy to perform
too, having the right equipment. If you don't have the right equipment it's
also easy to purchase those, and find those that help you perform this feat.
Read the secrets section to learn more about this benifiting, cool secret.
8) What are the secret locations in the game?
The secret locations are the small areas in the game that are hidden, normally
within an enclosed room which you need to break a wall to access. You can tell
that it's a secret location from a glowing sign within the area, and it's
always hidden well. Scroll down to the "the secret areas" secret to learn more
about them.
==============================================================================
----->Secrets
==============================================================================
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a) What are secrets?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A secret is something you encounter in the game that is usually rare or just
unusual. Therefore when we see it, it looks out of place. These can range from
glitches to bugs in the game, as well as cool stuff the developers made for us
to see, such as easter egg type things.
Tricks are things you can do for a cool outcome which may or may not benefit
you in the game. If it does benefit in some way that's great, if it doesn't
you're still going to see some cool stuff.
Now you know basically what secrets are, so read on to learn how to find or do
some that I've found.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b) Secrets & Tricks!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.....................................
i- Bow position when there is no bow?
.....................................
This trick allows your character to keep the archer posture even when you have
your melee weapon out.
Notice when you take out a bow that you will raise the bow up and point around
as if looking for a target (while standing still). Equip any melee weapon and
or shield for better effects and then equip any bow (not crossbow though) as
your secondary weapon. Stand still and take out your bow, and your charater
will do the archer posture as described above. Now as he/she does this, take
out your melee weapon without moving and your character will keep looking
around and putting their hands up as if holding a bow, but then they'll have
melee weapons in hand. Pretty funny to look at, a bug which should have been
fixed by the developers.
***Update*** This actually works for all types of weapons, so switching to a
bow when walking with a melee you'll hold your bow as if it were a melee
weapon. You can try different weapon types as well, also ones that require
two hands to carry.
.......................
ii- Float off the ledge
.......................
This appears in many video games, and is a common glitch. All you have to do
is stand near any ledge with your character, and try forcing him off it as
well as you can. Note that the ledge has to be elevated. When you force your
character off the ledge and the game stops you with this invisible barrier,
you will notice your feet or half your body hanging out of the ledge like
you're floating in the air. You do not fall however, it's just the barrier
stopping you from going any further so you won't actually drop.
..............................................................................
iii- Fish Bits
..............................................................................
Not really a trick or secret, but actually just a side quest that I find
interesting in a hidden cave in Seahaven. If you are a normal gamer, you
probably wouldn't have found this quest and cave anyways, so this is a good
chance to get to know where and what it's like.
Fish bits is a quest you recieve from Scuttles who is a bit like Smeagul
(Gollum) in the Lord of the Rings. The cave you will find him is in the first
town Seahaven, towards the very west of the place. To find the cave, walk up
to where Klars (and his partner) is and there you will find a path leading
left. Follow it down, and you will come to a dead end with a cave. It's called
"a small cave", though it's actually pretty big and includes secret areas
inside. Anyways, enter the cave and look to the left to find Scuttles, the
wierd goblin. Talk to him to recieve the quest "Fish Bits" and you will embark
on a quest to find some 'fish bits' for this fellow to brew his potions. You
will then recieve a free sample when you complete the quest, and it's a pretty
special Fish Concotion. Pretty cool right?
..............................................................................
iv- Walking off the Gondola before it takes you
..............................................................................
There are quite a few Gondolas in the game, and you must know one that you've
come across in the times you have played the game. Find one, and get ready for
this simple, meaningless, but cool trick.
Get on the gondola (a platform that takes you from one end to another if you
didn't know) and stay on the very edge, closest to the ground off the gondola.
Hold the square button to activate the gondola and since you're on the edge
you will have enough time to get off it before it takes you. But surprisingly,
the game allows it and you manage to get off while the gondola, thinking you
are still on it, moves along to the other side. To bring the gondola back to
the original place just walk away and come back.
..............................................................................
v- Leave your follower on the Gondola
..............................................................................
Read the above trick to know how to get off the Gondola before it takes you.
Now do this while you have a summoned companion, and while he/she's on the
gondola. Once you get off the gondola it will keep travelling to the other
side and your follower will stay on it and leave you on the gondola. It's
pretty funny as he or she can't come chase you back and is stuck on the
Gondola. After a few seconds your follower will teleport back beside you
because of the distance being too big.
..............................................................................
vi- Abilities go through the wall
..............................................................................
Normally when there is a wall around, you can hide behind it from your enemies
and such. No not normally, always. But notice if you stick against the wall,
and your enemy fires at you from the other side and hits the wall ON THE OTHER
SIDE of the wall you're stick too, you take the damage just the same. Well
this is a pretty obvious glitch, and can be exploited to benefit yourself.
All you have to do is when you fight those melee fighting enemies who lack
long range abilities, lure them to the opposite side of the wall and they will
not be smart enough to find an alternative route pass the wall. Instead they
will try to pass through the wall to get you, and when their bodies are on the
wall use an ability move, long ranged or short ranged against the wall at the
enemy on the other side to hit it. They take the same amount of damage as if
there is no wall, so you gain the advantage then to keep firing until the
enemy falls to their demise.
..............................................................................
vii- Frozen Enemies
..............................................................................
When this glitch happens, you'll have a big smile on your face. Sometimes when
you travel through areas with enemies, you will find that some when standing
at a distance don't notice you even though you saw it and the status bar of
the enemy comes up. You fire a shot from long range, and it immediately
realises that you're there and comes in for the kill. Well, there are times
where the enemy does not realise, and it's a glitch that usually occurs once
you die and the previously killed enemies respawn. Don't get this wrong
though, if you go more closer the enemy attacks as usual, but it's just at
that distance it 'freezes' allowing you to pummel from long range till death..
..............................................................................
viii- Mysterious Loss of Mana
..............................................................................
Sometimes when you equip a secondary weapon and switch to it while your mana
is full, you will lose a tiny bit of mana and it will immediately start
refilling again. Switch back to your primary weapon and you're mana will be
full again, and then back to your secondary and you will lose a bit of mana
again. It worked for me when I equipped magic orbs as my secondary weapon, so
if it does not work try equipping a magic orb and then trying.
..............................................................................
ix- Ability Hesitation
..............................................................................
When you use an ability that fires forth to your opponents like a fireball,
if you try to use it as soon as you get hit by an enemy's attack you will make
the move but nothing will come out of you. Meaning you will have just lost the
mana for using that ability and nothing had come out. It's a glitch, so make
sure you don't always fire as soon as you get hit by an enemy's blow. This
applies for offensive abilities only, so you'll perform the move for a
cleaving attack for Mogrim eg, but if the enemy hit you right when you perform
it and a little before you actually pull it off, it'll interrupt your attack
and deal no damage. The mana cost, like mentioned above, is still drained
though.
..............................................................................
x- Carry Capacity Overload
..............................................................................
This is a cool trick and glitch in the game, that can be easily done and
benefited by you if you have the right equipment, and follow the right
procedures.
First off, you need equipment of all sorts that can boost your strength
rating. Note that when you increase your strength, your carry capacity
increases. Let's use an example to explain this trick: You can carry 25 items
at once now. Your strength is 40. You increase it to 48 by equipping some
armor or items that add your strength rating. Because of the increased
strength rating, you can now carry 26 items instead of 25. Now fill up your
item capacity, to 26 items and weapons, and then unequip the armor or things
that increased your strength to 48 (remember this is just an example, you have
your own strength rating and carry capacity). This will drop your strength
rating back down to 40, and your carry capacity will be back down to 25 items.
But if you count up your weapons and items, you will have 26 in total! (Or
whatever amount you have since this is just an example). Yes, this is carry
capacity overload, and yes, you can use this method to carry a lot of extra
equipment.
A way of being allowed to carry much more items without having to maintain
armor, items and weapons that increase your strength that you may not want to
keep on you, simply follow this method:
Make note of your current strength rating. After that, make sure you prepare
as much strength boosting items and equipment as you can. Armor, gear, weapons
(long range or short range), anything at all, as long as they boost your
strength in some way, take hold of them. Buy some if you need more strength
boosting equipment if you can afford it. Equip all of them if possible, not
caring about the other attribute bonuses as long as your strength is as high
as possible.
Now if you manage to raise your strength by around 30 (which is definitely
possible because I've got it increased by 67 once by combining equipment), you
will be able to carry around 4-5 extra weapons. After you can equip that much
more weapons, and then unequip the strength boosters. You will still be able
to keep those extra carried items. Further more, you can then dispose of the
strength boosters, by selling them preferably if you don't need them.
..............................................................................
xi- Scuttles
..............................................................................
Like mentioned in the "Fish Bits" secret, Scuttles is a weird Goblin like
Smeagul in the Lord of the Rings. Not really a secret or anything, but he
offers you a special side mission. And his cute and strange appearance itself
is worth checking out.
To find this little dude, first head into Seaheaven Village. Walk up to where
Fedywrr and Klars are and beside there house to the left is a path leading
down. Follow that to the end to find a cave simply named- "A Small Cave".
Head in and as soon as the screen loads look towards the left and walk there
to greet Scuttles. He looks just like a regular goblin, except there's a squid
perched on his head. He's also a trader, and offers quite a few special items
including the unique "Fish Concotion".
..............................................................................
xii- The Secret Areas
..............................................................................
Scattered throughout the game are numerous "secret areas" waiting for you to
discover them. When finding one you will see a glowing icon that show's it's
a secret area, and once you've found it you will recieve money and experience.
They are mostly well hidden, and most of them also do not have an entrance. So
how would you enter them? Well by pushing against a secret breakable wall that
you have to find.. or you can just bash the wall up. You should recieve about
100 gold upon locating one of these areas.
..............................................................................
xiii- Summoned Minion through the lift
..............................................................................
Much like the gandola glitch, this trick plays around with one of the npcs
that will follow you in Dungeon Siege: ToA. This time it's not a follower
though, it's a summoned minion, so any of the summoning spells that Allister
can cast should do the trick.
Summon the minion, and locate a lift. Reach the lift before the summoned
minion does, and once the lift starts ascending/descending the minion will
teleport to you, but then the lift will pass through your minion as if it
weren't there, and then it'll try teleporting to you again, in which the same
thing will occur yet again. Well worth the look, you should go check it out
for yourself.
..............................................................................
xiv- Loads of Followers
..............................................................................
This is ultimately, one of my most favourite tricks of all. Not only is it
cool to witness and pull off, it's also beneficial in both gameplay and your
personal feelings.
You may have noticed that this Dungeon Seige game only allows one follower to
be summoned at a time. Well a small trick is to have two, simply by summoning
another with the ability that Allister learns "Summon Minion". This little
trick will allow you to have two companions at once instead, helping you
greatly and making you feel so much less lonely.
But the best part is, if you chose the Vile Wizard class for Allister (maybe
there're other abilities for other classes I'm not sure), you'll learn another
ability that allows a special type of 'summoning'. It's when you finish off an
enemy with a death energy attack, there's 10% their skeletons will be summoned
to become a skeleton minion to aid you. Up to three skeleton minions may
appear in this way, after you've slayed a few enemies with your death attacks.
This means you can have up to five 'followers' and have great massive battles
that don't effect frame rate at all. I'm not sure about the number of skeleton
minions that might appear though, that's just the highest number I've managed
to summon. If you manage to get three or more followers all together, you
shouldn't be afraid of taking on any enemy, for most of them (except for your
real follower) cannot die.
..............................................................................
xv- Skeleton Minion from some barrels?
..............................................................................
You can use this trick to help you with the previous trick, or just plainly
for helping you alone. When Allister gets the passive ability to allow a
skeleton minion to help him if he defeats an enemy will a dark energy attack,
you can instead attack barrels. It's still 10% chance of summoning a skeleton
for each barrel you knock down with the dark energy, and they're so much
easier to take down. This is just a way of tricking the game into thinking
you've 'killed' something in which the passive ability applies.
..............................................................................
xvi- Town Script Portal, are extra Teleports
..............................................................................
Very useful, you can add two more new teleport stations from ANYWHERE in the
game to both of the available settlements. If you're closer to Seahaven, you
will teleport there, if you are closer to the Refuge Hall you'll teleport to
there once you use the Town Script Portal. From the town, you can then take
the portal back to the place you used it, so if you used it deep in a big
dungeon place you'll start from there. You can use this advantage to keep a
teleport to a specific place in a specific area. The portal will never
disappear from the village, but however if you use another one and transport
back to the same city, that portal's teleport location will be rewritten. You
can do this for both the settlements, so you can have two extra handy teleport
machines.
..............................................................................
xvii- Using Stuff Before You Really Can
..............................................................................
For almost all weapons, gear, equipment and armor, there are requirements you
need to fulfill before you can wear and use them. For example, an Arcane armor
might require you to be level 30 or more, and have a willpower of 70 or more
before you can use it. You can 'cheat', and trick the system, and wear items
or use weapons you actually cannot, prematurely.
This is actually similar to the carry capacity overload trick, because you
achieve this by using the special bonuses other equipment can give you. All
you need to do then, is wear the equipment, gear or weapons that boost your
attributes and statistics until they meet the required condition of the
equipment you're planning to wear. So for example, you need a strength of 35
and a stamina of 30 to wear this excellent armor you like. Let's call it the
King's Armor. You have both 25 stamina and strength, but you can still be able
to wear that King's Armor if you equip other things, that boost your stamina
or strength until they're at least 35 and 30. So you can equip anything, as
long as they boost your strength and stamina enough to allow you to wear the
King's Armor. What you can then do, is wear it, and then take all the other
'booster' equipment off and wear whatever you like. Your stats will return
back to 25 strength and stamina, but magically you're still wearing the King's
Armor! You can use this trick for almost any requirement needed from any
equipment, except if you need to be level so and so. You got to train hard for
that, lol.
